Yeah, if we do anything about JSONB we are certainly going to need another
beta release, which means final couldn't be before end of Sept. at the
very earliest. Still, it's always been project policy that we ship when
it's ready, not when the calendar hits some particular point.
As for the expanded-mode changes, I thought there was consensus to
revert that from 9.4.
